Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Thaw the Alaskan king crab legs if frozen. Rinse them under cold water and set aside.

  2. 2

    Melt the Butter

    In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Chardonnay

    Pour in the Chardonnay wine and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes to allow the alcohol to cook off.

  4. 4

    Poach the Crab Legs

    Add the crab legs to the saucepan, ensuring they are submerged in the butter and wine mixture. Cover and poach for 6-8 minutes, or until heated through.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Remove the crab legs from the saucepan and place them on a serving platter. Drizzle with the buttery sauce and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with lemon wedges and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
